Rain, Rain and More Rain...

This spring has been very rainy. We have only seen the sun for 7 out of the last 39 days. Today was one of those wonderful sunny days and some of the flowers in my garden shook off all the rain and just blossomed. Here are two of my favorites. The first photo is of Pink Canterbury Bells and the second is of large greenish-yellow day lily. These wonderfully resilient flowers are among my favorites and I wanted to share.

As you can imagine, all this rain has kept us indoors on weekends. During a recent storm, as I worked on the doll for the Cloth and Clay Doll Workshop, my great little Quality Control expert examined my work.

Progress is also being made on the quilt for the Red Barn Quilt Along. All my stripes have been sewn and I am in the process of cutting them into blocks. I am enjoying this so much and slowly making progress.

About me

Welcome! I am happy you found me. As you may tell from my blog name, I love all kinds of crafting and I love to grow flowers in my garden. I will be sharing these things with you and I hope you enjoy it. Please stop by often. I'd love to hear from you.

Members of our Family

Sisi is one of our three cats, sister to Tippi. She is the top cat for sure, everyone gives her a wide berth.

This is Tippi, all 9 pounds of her. She is our athlete - all fur and muscle. She is also very sweet, polite and talkative. She always says hello announces her arrivals and departures with a very quiet little murmer.

This is Jack. He is also very sweet but more aggressive than Tippi. If he wants attention he just stops short of demanding it. But he loves to cuddle so that makes up for it.
